“Halikayo ngayon, at tayo'y magtuos,” sabi ng Walang-Hanggan. “Kahit ang inyong mga kasalanan ay maging kasimpula ng eskarlata, ang mga ito ay magiging kasimputi ng niyebe; kahit ang mga ito ay mamula tulad ng krimson, magiging tulad ng lana ang mga ito.”

Remember the days of old, Consider the years of ages past. Was there ever such a thing, and where did you find this custom in all of the books of the Sages of Israel early and late to have the custom and decree to ask material advice about what to do in the issues of the material world, even from the great sages of Israel, the early ones like the Tanaim and Emoraim to whom no secrets were held back and the path of heaven was lit up for them, but only the prophets themselves, who were before Israel, like Samuel the visionary who Saul went to to ask God about the asses that his father had lost!
